Morgan County Transfer Station

Small county transfer station just off North River Road that locals use when hauling trash or doing a big cleanout. It’s the kind of place residents drop off loads to be compacted and sent on to a distant landfill, so it’s busier on weekends and during spring cleanup. Expect a practical, no-frills setup rather than anything fancy.

Drive in and slow down for a booth and a scale-this type of facility typically weighs vehicles and charges by weight, so be prepared to stop twice. Pull-up lanes guide trucks and trailers toward the tipping area where compactors and large containers dominate the yard. Dust can be noticeable on dry days; surfaces are mostly gravel or packed dirt with heavy equipment around. Recycling or drop-off bins are often grouped to one side, separated from the main tipping lanes.
